Apathy

Apathy is the emotion — (and attitude) of not caring, lacking indifference, motivation or concern to something. This emotional state is considered to be negative and often associated with the feelings of pessimism and depression. Apathy can also be used as a coping mechanism for emotional burnout.

Word stats:

Apathy is the opposite of Empathy
The root of the word apathy comes from the Greek word apathḗs.

A- lack of
Pathos- feeling
Mrs. Haze: "Hey, I've noticed your grades have been down lately. You're not usually like this. What's up and how can I help you?" She said, smiling.

Jessie: "I've been feeling a lot of apathy lately. I know I'm not usually like this, but I feel really drained. At this point, I'm just forcing myself to work. There's too much pressure on the group project I've been working on." He uttered, sighing.

Mrs. Haze: "Thank you for being honest. If you'd like, you can take a break and treat yourself with self care." She looked at him, expressing concern in her eyes.

Jessie: "I'll try... but I'm not really used to people telling me that. I've done more than half of the project whereas my peers only done less 10 percent."

Mrs. Haze. "I'm so sorry. I'm going to remove you from the group and let you work with Ellie. She also has done a lot for her.. past group. If you're stuck or anything I'll be here to help both of you." Mrs. Haze grinned, knowing that they both secretly had a crush on each other.

Apathy

To not care.

To not give a sh**.

To not give a f***.

To say, "F*** you."

The disgusting, oozing socio-moral problem at the core of various published Urban Dictionary

definitions. The same problem found in

comments sections on various social media

platforms and community websites (i.e.

YouTube, Redditt, Quora).

Additionally, heavily found on personal or social media creator postings on social media platforms (i.e. TikTok, Facebook, X, TruthSocial, Instagram). Lastly, found dangerously in predatory types on some social media platforms (i.e. Snapchat).

In the end, these facts make these websites' and domains' existence possibly necessary to allow for statistical analysis of it's user population in universities for research in the social sciences. Existence could also prove a valuable (or potentially dangerous) tool for moral theologians teaching or studying at the high school level.
Person 1: Hey Tommy, I was wondering if you could help me out with some of your morphine pills? I hurt my leg skateboarding and the pain is wrenching!
Person 2: Fuck you and your fucking leg. I got pain of my own to tend to.
Person 3: Hey Tommy, don't you think you might want to consider and reflect on whether there's some apathy problem you're dealing with?

apathy kun

reference to the very sad and tragic fan fiction of Bokuto Koutarou and Akaashi Keiji, In Another Life, by LittleLuxray on AO3. Bokuto does not know Akaashi's name at the start, so he calls him "Apathy Kun" instead.

in other words, if you mention this to someone who's read the fic, please do expect to be hit with a shovel.
A: hey, who is Apathy Kun?

B, trying not to cry: Oh, it's Bokuto

apathy wash

When kitchen implements are not unloaded from the dishwasher because one isn't entirely certain where they are stored, and instead are left in for another cycle until someone else (wife/girlfriend) can put them away.
Wife: Honey, why did all the measuring cups and the slotted spoons go through the dishwasher again?

Husband (aloud): Oh those? Well they still looked a little dirty so I ran them through again. . .

Husband (thinking bubble): . . . and I have no friggin' clue where you put them so I just apathy washed them all.
